Odysseus

Dear Journal,

It's all my fault! My men and I are stuck in the Cyclopse's cave all because of my curiosity. They suggested we just take the lambs and leave, but I said to stay. And becasue of that, 2 of my men are dead, eaten by this horrible creature. For this, I feel so guilty. And now we cannot escape because the Cyclopse has covered the entrance with a gigantic rock not movable by my men and I alone. I fear that the longer we stay, the more men I will loose to this horrible creature, and eventually myself as well. I have to find a way to trick this beast without allowing him to kill us. Everyone acts brave, but I know deep down they are fearful of what is to come. I am too. The light's too dim to write any longer. I hope for better tomorrow.

Sincerly,
Odysseus
